[amsat-bb] Help needed please

Hello all,

As a part of a student satellite project from India, I have a few questions regarding how can i improve my reception of data on the ground station. We have a TS2000 and have designed a few yagi antennas for uhf and vhf band. I would like to know some satellites on which we can practice receiving any signal. We are totally new to this system and have practiced some failed attempts of the same. Further, we would really appreciate If anyone could help on how we can increase our reception power. Any other help or advice would also be appreciated. Thank you.
